Abstract

The prevalence and severity of child mental health and psychosocial difficulties are significantly impacted by Complex Humanitarian Emergencies (CHEs). There is still a significant lack of evidence-based interventions that are both feasible and effective for this population, despite strong evidence that CHEs have a negative impact on children’s mental health. A recent meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials of focused psychosocial support interventions in humanitarian settings with limited resources revealed the following: i) positive effects on children’s PTSD symptoms and functional impairment, and ii) improvements in hope, coping, and social support. However, the authors recommended that additional research be conducted on interventions for younger children, children who have been relocated, and children who live in larger households.
